• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/CONF365 - Authorization check class &1 does not exist ?

  The SAP error message /BOBF/CONF365 Authorization check class &1 does not exist typically indicates that the system is trying to perform an authorization check for a class that is not defined in the system. This error is often encountered in the context of the Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) in SAP, particularly when dealing with configuration or custom development.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Class: The specified authorization check class (denoted by &1 in the error message) is not defined in the system. This could be due to a missing configuration or a custom development that has not been properly implemented.
  Incorrect Configuration: The BOPF configuration might be pointing to an authorization class that has not been created or activated.
  Transport Issues: If the system is part of a landscape (e.g., Development, Quality, Production), the authorization class might not have been transported correctly from one system to another.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Authorization Class: Verify if the authorization class exists in the system. You can do this by checking the relevant configuration in the BOPF framework.
  
  Use transaction code SE93 to check for authorization objects.
  Use transaction code SE80 to explore the BOPF configuration and see if the class is defined.
  
  
  
  Create/Activate Authorization Class: If the class does not exist, you may need to create it or activate it if it is part of a custom development. This typically involves:
  
  Defining the authorization object in transaction SU21.
  Creating the necessary authorization checks in your BOPF implementation.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Requests: If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all necessary objects related to the authorization class were included in the transport request and successfully imported into the target system.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review any documentation related to the BOPF implementation you are working with. There may be specific instructions or prerequisites for setting up authorization checks.
  
  
  Debugging: If you have access to debugging tools, you can set breakpoints in the relevant BOPF methods to trace where the authorization check is failing and gather more context about the error.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if this is a standard SAP application or if you suspect a bug.
  
  
  Related Information:
